A degree or short course<\/h3>\n<p>Some individuals will start their path by acquiring a degree that enables them to enter the construction field. Education in civil engineering, construction science, architecture, and property are options for those with the right resources and time. Short courses are another route \u2013 and offer on-the-job skills, gained in a short amount of time. Construction is a job and industry that places practical capabilities way over tertiary qualification.<\/p>\n<p>The UCT <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getsmarter.com\/products\/uct-construction-management-online-short-course\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Construction Management<\/a> online short course will also allow you to upskill while you are employed full-time.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Work experience<\/h3>\n<p>In an industry like construction, experience plays a decisive role in securing you a job and determining both the seniority of your role and salary. If you\u2019re new to the industry, you\u2019ll start as an assistant and work your way up to managing your own projects. If you\u2019ve finished high school but already have experience, you can still be successful in the industry, but you\u2019ll likely perform better as a self-employed construction manager.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re looking for a precise and practical insight into the South African construction industry, the UCT <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getsmarter.com\/products\/uct-construction-management-online-short-course\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Construction Management<\/a> online short course provides both entry-level individuals and experienced professionals with the essential tools to become an impactful construction manager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"related-programme-block\">\n<div class=\"related-programme\" onclick=\"window.open('https:\/\/www.getsmarter.com\/products\/uct-construction-management-online-short-course', '_blank')\">\n    <div class=\"row\">\n        <div class=\"col-12 col-md-11\">\n            <div class=\"related-programme__school-logo-container\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getsmarter.com\/universities\/university-of-cape-town\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"related-programme__school-logo-link\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.getsmarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/UCT_logo.png\" alt=\"School Logo\" class=\"related-programme__school-logo\">\n            <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"related-programme__copy\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getsmarter.com\/universities\/university-of-cape-town\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"related-programme__school-name\">\n                University of Cape Town (UCT)            <\/a><br>\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getsmarter.com\/products\/uct-construction-management-online-short-course\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"related-programme__programme-name\">\n                Construction Management online short course            <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"col-md-1 related-programme__chevron-column\">\n            <div class=\"related-programme__icon-container\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"add-btn\" src=\"https:\/\/www.getsmarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/blog\/assets\/icn_arrow-circle_right.svg\" alt=\"Read More Icon\">\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"accordion\">\n<div class=\"card\">\n<div id=\"headingOne\" class=\"card-header\">\n<h6 class=\"mb-0\"><button class=\"btn\" style=\"background-color: transparent;\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#sources\" aria-expanded=\"true\" aria-controls=\"sources\"> <strong>Click here to view sources<\/strong> <\/button><\/h6>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"sources\" class=\"collapse\" aria-labelledby=\"headingOne\" data-parent=\"#accordion\">\n<div class=\"card-body\">\n<ul class=\"mx-0\" style=\"list-style: none;\">\n\n<li class=\"mb-4\"><sup>1<\/sup> (Sep, 2021). \u2018Construction in South Africa &#8211; Key Trends and Opportunities to 2025 (Q3 2021)\u2019.
